Are You Obsessed with Fucking?

Rate: 64 Flag

Here we go again. Those who follow this ridiculous blog of mine know that I get some goofy things in my regular in box and I sometimes post them here for all to enjoy. Well, today's post is all about Fucking. Fucking Austria, that is.

It seems that the British are totally obsessed with Fucking, Austria of all things.

 

                    Fucking

Apparently they like to steal the Fucking signs and take them home for souvenirs just to proof they've been up to Fucking.

"Hey, man. Wucha been up to?".........."Fucking, man. I've been up to Fucking!!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

               Fucking story

 

Here is the above article:

                                     Germans not Amused

LONDON: (AFP)  British tourists have left the residents of one charming Austrian village effing and blinding by constantly stealing the signs for their oddly named village.

While British visitors are finding it hilarious, the residents of Fucking are failing to see the funny side.

Only one kind of criminal ever stalks the sleepy 32 house villiage near Salzburg on the German border--cheeky British tourists armed with a sense of humour and a screwdriver.

But the local authorities are hitting back with the signs now set in concrete, police chief Kommandant Schmidtberger is on the lookout.

"We will not stand for the Fucking signs to be removed," the officer said. "It may be very amusing for you British, but Fucking is simply Fucking to us. What is the big Fucking joke? It is puerile." (puerile means childish, I looked it up)

Local tourist guide Andreas Ruhmueller said it was only the British that had a fixation on Fucking.

The Germans all want to see the Mozart house in Salzburg," he explained.

"Every American only seems to care only about the Sound of Music (the 1955 film shot around Salzberg).

The occasional Japanese wants to see Hitler's birthplace in Braumau.

"But for the British, it's all about Fucking."

Guesthouse manager Augustina Lindbauer described the village's breathtaking lakes, forests and vistas.

"Yet, still there is this obsession with Fucking,"she said.

"Just this morning I had to tell an English lady who stopped by that there were no Fucking postcards."

If you have any thoughts about Fucking, here are the directions so you can get right to it.

       Fucking Map

 

     And here's a photo of one those Fucking British tourists.

        Fucking British tourist

 

 
This sign says '"Bitte! Nicht so schnell", which in English translates to "Please! Not so fast!" So slow down while in Fucking.

                         Fucking Not so fast

 

If you like to use a GPS while traveling, you'll know when you're getting close to Fucking because it will tell you so. There is Fucking up ahead.

      Fucking GPS large

 

And when you leave this little hamlet you'll also know when you're done with Fucking. See? No more Fucking.

                      Fucking no large

 

All this talk about Fucking raises some questions about Fucking that need to be considerer:

Are the residents called Fuckers or just plain old Fucks? Fuckettes?

What is the Fucking neighborhood like?

What do they call their mothers?

What do they teach at the Fucking High School?

Do they have a Fucking Post Office?

Does the Fucking Hospital have an ER?

And what about those Fucking drivers?

If your friend came from another town, he wouldn't be your Fucking friend, would he?

Is skinny-dipping allowed in the Fucking Lake?

Can you have a wonderful time at Fucking?

Can you stay in a Fucking chalet?

Does Fucking need government funding or does it stand on it's own?

Do they have an annual Gay Fucking Parade?

Does anyone care about Fucking, but the Fuckers?

Does everyone like Fucking?



-- Pronounced 'fooking'.-- The little hamlet of Fucking is named after the man who founded the village in the 6th century -- his name? Focko.

Go figure.

I've never met anyone who doesn't like Fucking.
This is Fucking awesome.
Everyone should get to Fucking.
Marriage is great but a lot of people should stop at Fucking.

(I'm not sure I can stop, Michael. HELP!)
Ok.
Whew!
I think I'm finished with Fucking.

(oops)
Uh..........
I'm sure the Brits just consider it good Fucking fun.

Makes Intercourse, PA seem tame by comparison though.
Jodi gets firsties at the Fucking post! Yay!!
I've always loved the word "fooking". Who knew it was spelled just like... well, you know.
I've been there. It was the shortest fucking visit I have ever had.
Fuck this, and all the faux fucking titles.
I can see by this post that you're a Fucking genius, Michael.
I went to Salzburg, but I missed Fucking.
fuck me! (i fell for it :)
I can always count on you to find the latest in the news of the weird!
Whew! For a minute there I thought you were taking me to task for my potty mouth.
You are a Fucking scholar and teaser Michael.
Oh fuck! You fucking got me!

fucking rated!
Today, ich bin ein Fucker.
Does anyone in Fucking give a fuck or are the townsfolk like the Shakers? I can tell you from personal experience the German word "fahrt" provides much humor for touristas.
They have had the same problem with stolen signs in Twatt, in Orkney, Scotland.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with the term.
that's fucking smart.
This is fucking hilarious!! I want to go to fucking. I like fucking and I want more of it.. lol
Great fucking post..

Do they make cheese there? They don't? There's no Fucking whey?!?
Monkey fingered. What the fuck subreddit. Of course.
Could you please give me those directions for fucking, again. I could use them.
Well, you know what it's like in Europe; it's just one Fucking town after another.

When exiting the Autobahn, look for the 'Ausfahrt' signs at the off-ramp. Yeah, no shit.
your ads are empty bc adsense does not finance fucking!
Bill S., There is an Intercourse in Michigan, too. Makes you wonder what they were thinking when they named the place. It's not likely the founders name, but who knows?

Umby, Fooking is just plain funny, but it's hard to use in a sentence.

O'Really? There was a video on the web. The guy went all the way through town in less than a minute!

Sorry, Stellaa. I would have written about real sex, but I'm under qualified.

COS, I wish I could take credit for the idea, but really stole it and doctored it up a bit.

DeliaBlack, I miss Fucking, too! I'm still saving myself for you. ;-)

bahHHMblog, Sorry about the deception.

MaryT, I still wearing my abstinence ring. It makes me feel safe.

Maria Stuart, You, too?! There's a lot of that going around.

Zuma, You are correct except for the scholar part.

Spotted_mind, Have some more spots for your mind. You thought I'd write something naughty. Shame on you. ;-)

Tom, Can't say that I know much German, but fahrt is funny in any language!

GeeBee, That is funny! Maybe I should Google the Twatt and do a post on that tomorrow. Great minds think alike.

Steve Blevins, I had to look it up, too.

Ben Sen, Thanks. I think.

Fireeyes, you don't have to go all the way to Austria just to get to Fucking, just head to Florida. ;-)
When I was living in Spain, there was a comedy troupe that did a recurrent skit - a commercial for Mr. Fucker (pronounced Meestair Fookair), which was a spoof of Mr. Clean. The first time I saw it, I nearly spit dinner across the room. The nice older woman I was staying with didn't get the joke, and I didn't have quite the right words in Spanish to explain . . .
And the answer to your title question is: Yes - isn't everyone?
BobbG, I didn't realize that word was such a major part in detective work. Hilarious!

shaggylocks, No cheese in Fucking, from what I hear anywhey.

BBE, Thanks, man!

Lea Lane, As much as you travel, I thought you'd know how do get to Fucking. I'm so out of practice I doubt that I could get to Fucking with two maps and a GPS.

Smithery, Ausfarht. Hehehehehe!

Jane Smithie, Doesn't that just figure. There isn't a swear word in the whole piece. (okay, maybe a few) Adsense can keep their two cents. Fuck'em. I don't write for them. Should have titled the piece Fucking in Spamalot. Hehe.

Owl_Says_Who, Hard to explain things like that to the elderly. Nothing I hate to hear from my Mother worse than "I don't get it."
I can hear the mayor saying, "Where did all the Fucking signs go??"
What is the birth rate in Fucking?
Don't the British have fucking in their land?
Cool! Rated
If they would change the name to "Fucking Idiots" maybe people would quit stealing the fucking signs. Hilarious!!
This ENTIRE THING cracks me up. But Shaggylocks is the prize commenter...no whey!
I have nothing else to say about Fucking.
Ralph, Seems the Brits could save a lot of travel time be renaming one of there own towns, eh? I don't think there's much fucking in Fucking because it was established in the 1600's and you can still drive through the town in less than a minute.
Scanner, I wonder what idiot means in German.
Bill, I know.

Aim, Shaggy was quick on the draw with that one.
Uh. They don't see the problem with it?! I mean, as 'linguistically' open as I may be....how can they be outraged when fuck is a universal term for everything?
LMAO! Damn and I thought you were gonna write about sex, Micheal!

Fucking Rated!
Well obviously the answer to your question is "Yes"!
Michael, you gotta love those 'fucking' Brits! They all are just a bunch of 'wankers'!

- rated & hoping for a trip to this fantastic place

ps: the last sign must have influenced Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" drug campaign.
Seriously, GPS helps me with Fucking every time! Wouldn't know how to get there...wouldn't know it if I saw it...wouldn't know my way there without it!!! Thank goodness for "Fucking GPS!"
You could get pregnant in Fucking and by fucking.
You are definitely obsessed with Fucking, Mikey! The Brits obviously know their way around Fucking and I'm sorry I missed seeing Fucking.
I guess that would be the place to take a fucking vacation. Of course if you steal the sign you will get harassed by the fucking police and wind up in fucking court.
Fucking is great. Did you know I write erotica for a living? I've done some of my best work in Fucking.
Just curious... do most people stop by Brest on their way to Fucking?
I really needed to laugh some today Mike and this title, post, and the comments are bringing me back to life.
Who doen't like Fucking? It looks like a nice place to be.
I have never laughed so hard in a very long time.
Thanks for this.
Rated a a Fucking Good Time
There's also a former Dutch company that produced aircraft. The company's name?

Fokker.

If you're operating in relatively busy airspace, you'll get air traffic control telling you about potentially conflicting aircraft. And it was an oldie but a goodie, when advised that there was a Fokker, to reply back "I've got the Fokker in sight."

The joke evolved somewhat. Some of the Fokkers had larger engines than others, so sometimes the reply would be "I've got the big motor Fokker in sight."

And what do you call a Fokker that's been sitting around a long time and gathered a lot of dust?

A dirty Fokker.
Robin, I know, huh? Blackballed by Fucking. Whodathunkit.

Miko, I only write about what I know about, so sex is out of the question, but Fucking................ask me about Fucking.

Cymraeg, It just comes natural, doesn't it?

George, I'll bet that IS where Nancy got the idea. We better not let Sarah Palin get a hold of this.

Just Cathy, They are a hndy device aren't they? Now if someone will invent one that vibrates, we'll all be set.

Ablonde, I don't think they fuck in Fucking. Doesn't look like their population has gone up in centuries.

Ocularnervosa, Not to mention the fucking fine and the fucking bail.

Valerie Lopez, Had I known you write erotica I would have been right over. From what I understand, it's customary to stop at Brest on the way to Fucking, but it's not a requirement if you are short on time.

Mission, So glad I could make you laugh today. It is my mission. ;-)
Fuck me that's brilliant!
Perhaps Fucking, GE could become a sister city to Intercourse, PA. Located near Blue Ball and Paradise. And I am not fucking kidding.
iamsurly, I just call them as I se them. ;-)

Sally, why am I not surprised that you know that?
"bitte, nicht so schnell", good advice when at Fucking
Obviously before I die, I gotta see some Fucking.
I tried sneaking in the back road to Fucking, but was unsuccessful. I would like the No Fucking sign though.
There is also a town called Climax, Michigan. With friends near Lansing, I've gone down (Route) 69 lots of times to get to Climax.
I couldn't read this at work. Really.
To answer the question in your title? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
I had to come back for another laugh reading these intellegent comments about fucking. This is so fucking funny.
Tony, "Big motor Fokker" had to be hilarious to here over the airwaves! There is a old WWII joke, but I can only remember the punchline, "but these Fokkers were Messerschmitts." or something like that.

Roy,Slow and easy wins that race, eh?

VR, I have pictures, though I've never been there.

Buffy, I can't imagine any way that you could sneak into Fucking.

NoisyNora, I hear that route 69 is a fine way to reach Climax. There is also an Intercourse in Michigan. I think you can get to Climax through there, too!

OEsheepdog, no this is not a work friendly post, but I'm glad you made it anyway.

Gwool, Yes, yes, yes! We don't have 6.5 billion people on the planet by being obsessed with baseball.

Mission, You know that you are welcome anytime. Some of these OS folks have some razor sharp wits, eh?
This reminded me when the Canadian guitarist Joel Fafard was appearing in our concert series and spoke of his trips across Canada, going through the towns of Elbow, Urine, and Climax, as he left Climax the sign said "Thank You for Coming".
I have been to Fucking a few times and found the accommodations extremely uncomfortable. To say nothing of expensive.
Hey Bitch! You kiss your mom with that fucking mouth, or what?
Michael, the joke goes like this. There's an old WWII vet and he's recounting his war experiences. And he's going on about how there was this fucker off his left wing, and there was another fucker right in front of him, and their entire squadron was surrounded by fuckers.

The guy who's interviewing him says, we'd just like our listeners to know that the Fokker is a type of aircraft made by a Dutch company. Please don't be offended.

And then the WWII vet says, no, those fuckers were Messerschmitts!
Folkmuse, That is hilarious. Thank you for coming. I wonder if the irony is lost on the city counsel when that happens.

Monsieur Chariot, Shaggylocks says the don't even make cheese there, No Fucking whey.

GracieLou!!!!! Yes, I kiss my mom with this mouth, just not when I'm in Fucking. (Yikes, that doesn't read well at all) And thanks for calling me bitch. I've missed you.

Sirenita, Exactly!

Tony Wang! That's the Joke! Well done, sir. Glad someone around here still has some brain cells that work.
Thank God you are still wearing that ring. I was worried about you!
Great journalism Rodgers! Someone needed to expose this Fucking story
I too love fucking. The act and the word. Fuckity fuck fuck!
Isn't that what Verbal always says? Or someone. It's a great verb and great exclamation as well.

Rated
I don't care for the word....and so am relieved I don't live there! :)
Hilarious post!
I dunno. Bad enough to be a Hamburger, never mind a Fucker...
sounds like they could sell a lot of Fucking signs in the gift shops there if they wanted to!
I'd never heard of Fucking, until now! (guess I've been missing out on a fairly popular obsession)
Who would love Fucking? Fucking is great. Fucking is hopefully in my future.
Mmmm. Fucking great.

:)
Well that solves the dilemma of where to go for my husbands and my sexy get away. To Fucking it is! I would think that more people would live there. Only 32 houses? Hmmm...they must practice stellar birth control.
Pennsylvania has another good one: Blue Ball.
...and all those breathtaking lakes, forests and vistas too. It's fucking awesome.
Damn I'm always late for the good stuff. . .wait for me! There's nothing I like better than. . .oh well, I'm sure someone already said it. . .
Like Chicago guy, I'm often late to the fucking party and miss the good stuff, but if it's pronounced "fooking", doesn't it belong in Ireland?
Good, clean, fucking fun!
and i'm fucking glad that you're the fucking messenger, guy. that's just toooo fucking sweeet! i love the line about who cares about fucking, aside from the fuckers! right fucking on.
It's right there with Tittmoning. Titt-mon-ing. Am I the only one who blinked at Tittmoning?

And Horndl.
